27 July 2003 - Around the house and meadow


Again for the present this record is lists... but it is dated in the file for the 27th 
[at 13:19 we were between Amboise and Loches with the car 
[1956 Citroën AZC called Gytha] looking like this >>>












But she did look a bit more balanced with us both in her!!]
We were on our way down with the first load of 'stuff' for the house.


So... despite the date shown above from the notebook
I think that it was a page of accumulated records
[ the Jersey Tiger below was photographed on the 29th!]
